The Exchange of Ideas: A reflection on the history of the Institute of
Commonwealth Studies seminar series
To mark the Institute of Commonwealth Studies Library's project to
catalogue and provide online access to records for individual Institute
of Commonwealth Studies Seminar papers from 1950-1990 a one day
conference will be held on Friday October the 5th. Begun in 1950 the
seminars were at the time an experiment in the interdisciplinary
exchange of ideas and this one day conference will explore some of the
themes and events marking both Commonwealth history and the
historiography of the study of the Commonwealth and its member regions.
Speakers will include Professor Shula Marks; Professor Robert Holland;
Dr Michael Twaddle; Dr Peter Lyon, Professor Michael Lee, and Professor
Carl Bridge. A final programme will be available soon.
The conference will run from 10.30 to 5.00 and conclude with a reception
launching the catalogued records to date.
